I've a form where user can update name and rate. Here user can dynamically add the inputs as well so that they can send multiple items at once. But I wonder how to validate them.
controller:
public function store(Request $request)
{
//how to validate name and rate so that they are not empty & name should be unique here?
if ($request->get('name')) {
foreach ($request->get('name') as $key => $value) {
ItemType::create([
'name' => $request->get('name')[$key],
'rate' => $request->get('rate')[$key],
]);
}
}
return redirect()->back();
}
Generally the validation is done as below but how to implement in above scenario for dynamic inputs?
$request->validate([
'name' => 'required|unique:name',
'rate' => 'required',
]);
thanks in advance

I have already asked question about Laravel 5.7 validation, however it still does not work quite right. the validation is not executed at all when sending the content.
public function store(Request $request)
{
$data=$request->all();
$validator = Validator::make($data, [
'first_name' => 'alpha|min:2|max:30',
]);
}
Thanks in advance
if your are not using form validation then maybe it will be helpful for you.
I add validator example in your code, you can try it
maybe your problem will resolve
public function update(Request $request, Player $player)
{
//example validation
$validator = Validator::make($request->all(), [
'id' => 'required|integer', //put your fields
'text' => 'required|string' //put your fields
]);
if ($validator->fails()){
return "Invalid Data";
}
if(Auth::check()){
$playerUpdate = Player::where('id', $player->id)
->update([
'first_name' => $request->input('fist_name'),
'last_name' => $request->input('last_name')
]);
if($playerUpdate){
return redirect()->route('players.show', ['player'=> $player->id])
->with('success' , 'player foo');
}
}
return back()->withInput()->with('errors', 'Foo error');
}
I don't see your validation code at all.
there are two ways for implementing the validation in laravel
Form Request Validation
validation in controller methods
Please Add one, and try again
Hello guys im beginner in laravel and i need some help.I have a problem with my validation.When i store data in my bootstrap modal everyting is fine but when i press edit button and want to update, the same validation logic applies like when i create.When I want to update, if i don't change the name it won't update because it must be unique.
This is my Department Controller
public function store(Request $request)
{
$this->validate($request,[
'name'=>"required|unique:departments|max:255"
]);
$departmentId = $request->department_id;
Department::updateOrCreate(
['id' => $departmentId],
['name' => $request->name, 'description' => $request->description]
);
return response()->json(['success'=>'Department saved successfully.']);
}
As previously mentioned it would be ideal to have this be 2 different methods, but if you want this in one method you can achieve that. You will need to check if that department id is being passed or not to see if this is an update or create, then adjust the rule based on this. You can try something like this:
public function store(Request $request)
{
$unique = \Illuminate\Validation\Rule::unique('deparments');
if ($request->has('deparment_id')) {
$unique->ignore($request->department_id);
}
$this->validate($request, [
'name' => [
'required', $unique, 'max:255',
],
]);
$departmentId = $request->department_id;
Department::updateOrCreate(
['id' => $departmentId],
['name' => $request->name, 'description' => $request->description]
);
return response()->json(['success'=>'Department saved successfully.']);
}
This assumes the deparment_id is only passed for updates.
you can do this :-
$this->validate($request,[
'name' => 'required|unique:departments|max:255,'. $request->department_id,
]);
I create laravel form validation request and have unique rules on that validation.
I want use it on store and update method without create new form request validation again.
but the problem is when on store the id doesnt exist and the validate is passed
and when on update i failed the pass the validating because the id is exist on storage
i want to ignore the id on unique rules but use same form validate request
what is best practice to check on form validate request class if this action from store or update method to ignore unique id ?
Ok.. i can do it like #porloscerros Ψ suggest
public function rules()
{
$rules = [
'name' => 'required|string|unique:products|max:255',
];
if (in_array($this->method(), ['PUT', 'PATCH'])) {
$product = $this->route()->parameter('product');
$rules['name'] = [
'required',
'string',
'max:255',
Rule::unique('loan_products')->ignore($product),
];
}
return $rules;
}
Try this, it worked for me.
Laravel unique: third param can exclude the id for example, of the record, like this:
public function rules()
{
return [
'name' => 'required|string|max:255|unique:products,'.$this->id,
];
}
Why are you checking the id when store or update in FormRequest? You don't need this. The id comes to your controller's method like as parameter. Or laravel will create the model using DI in the your controller's method public function update(User $user) and then you can use $user like an instance of User model. You may check the id in web.php or api.php:
https://laravel.com/docs/7.x/routing#parameters-regular-expression-constraints
And I suggest you not to use one FormRequest for two methods. This is bad practice
im using this
$validated = $request->validated();
use this method:
public function createAccount(RegisterRequest $request)
{
$attr = $request->validated();
instead of something like this:
public function createAccount(Request $request)
{
$attr = $request->validate([
'name' => 'required|string|max:255',
'email' => 'required|string|email|unique:users,email',
'password' => 'required|string|min:6|confirmed'
]);
use php artisan make:request RegisterRequest
public function rules()
{
return [
'name' => 'required|string|max:255',
'email' => 'required|string|email|unique:users,email',
'password' => 'required|string|min:6|confirmed'
];
}
public function rules()
{
if (request()->isMethod('post')) {
$rules = [
'image' => 'required|image|mimes:jpeg,jpg,png|max:2000',
'name' => 'required|unique:categories'
];
} elseif (request()->isMethod('PUT')) {
$rules = [
'name' => 'required|unique:categories,name'
];
}
return $rules;
}
I am creating an API POST request, but I want to hash some of the user input (referenceID and phone_no) and save into hash field using SHA512. I want to put it in the Controller.
I have create the Model Class and also the Controller
Model
protected $fillable = [
'referenceID' ,
'phone_no',
'hash'
];
Controller
public function store(Request $request)
{
$request->validate([
'referenceID' => 'required',
'phone_no' => 'required',
'hash' => 'required'
]);
$valrequest = Task::create($request->all());
return response()->json([
'message' => 'Great success! New validation request created',
'valrequest' => $valrequest, 201
]);
}
I want to hash the user input (referenceID and phone_no) and save into the hash field using SHA512. I want to put it in the Controller. How do I do this.
Should work fine like this, but the code's not tested at all and there's like a million different ways to do this. You won't need to validate the hash because it's no user input.
public function store(Request $request)
{
$request->validate([
'referenceID' => 'required',
'phone_no' => 'required',
]);
$referenceID = $request->referenceID;
$phone_no = $request->phone_no;
$hash = hash('sha512', $referenceID . $phone_no);
$valrequest = Task::create(compact('referenceID', 'phone_no', 'hash'));
return response()->json([
'message' => 'Great success! New validation request created',
'valrequest' => $valrequest, 201
]);
}
Laravel hash provides Bcrypt and Argon2 hashing. If you want to use sha512 you should use php hashing function. hash("sha512","your string");
In my form I have 2 attributes that need to be unique, I am trying to use Laravels Validator to do this but am very stuck..
Even if i add a return false/true to the function, there are no errors generated and the controller continues on. Am I missing something (not according to their docs :| )
$validator = Validator::make($request->all(), [
'organisationid' => 'required',
'membershipcode' => 'required'
]);
$validator->sometimes('membershipcode', 'required', function($input) {
return false;
});
In the store method in your controller, you can add validation like this:
public function store(Request $request)
{
$this->validate($request, [
'name' => 'required|unique',
'description' => 'required',
]);
$movie = Model::create($request->all());
return redirect('view')->with('message', 'Added successfully');
}
The available validation rules are here: https://laravel.com/docs/5.5/validation#available-validation-rules
